Can I take pictures?

We are having an "unplugged" ceremony. This means we are asking all phones and other devices be put away and on silent/turned off during the ceremony so that all guests can be 100% present with us. After the ceremony, please feel free to take as many pictures as you want! We promise to share our ceremony photos as soon as possible.
